I found a picture of CO4307 (june10,1944) . My father is in it. I "googled" and found this site. He passed away in 1990. Would anyone like a copy of this picture?

I was attending RM "A" Class 69-50 which started in November 1969 and graduated in April 1970. As I have mentioned before, it was a very rough winter. I was from Illinois and very accustomed to cold winters, but this even tested my endurance a little. I remember each morning, we would form up and march to the chow hall. To protect us from the bitter cold, we all wore those knit watch caps with a section cut out for our eyes so we could pull them down over our faces. Moisture from our breathe would freeze forming a solid disc of ice right in from of our mouths. There was a heavy metal railing, like a steel pipe in front of the chow hall that we passed by as we entered. Each of us would snatch off our caps and hit that pipe to break off the ice just before entering. It made a clanging sound each time and we used to laugh and call that the "Bainbridge dinner bell!"
